"S" as a dollar"

This is a humorous photo of a 1-dollar banknote casting its specific shadow in the form of "$". I've wanted for long to make a connection between real US dollar banknote and the symbol that denotes the American currency. The idea came to me suddenly - as it usually happens - and in a day the photo was completed.
